Somerset Christian School: Join Us in Proclaiming God’s Glory





Knowledge without integrity is incomplete. We at the Somerset Christian School believe that an education is far more than memorizing facts and figures. It is about development of the whole child. It is the blending of faith, knowledge, and purpose. This is why we feel so passionately that education must be rooted in the source of truth, Jesus Christ.

It is no secret that public education has become overrun with secular theology. Children are being forced to accept things that stand in absolute contrast to our shared Christian beliefs. While there are many, many wonderful teachers in the public school system, the system itself is governed by heavy rules and regulations that handcuff these teachers and limit their ability to deeply connect with their students. This is why we are so thankful for schools like Somerset Christian. Our teachers have the ability to teach in line with their convictions because it is not funded by the state. The small class sizes give them the ability to provide focused attention to each individual student.



Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. – Proverbs 22:6



Like many private Christian Schools, the need for financial support is significant. The administration is vigilant in keeping the costs low without sacrificing the quality of the education. In order to preserve this wonderful tradition, we have developed an annual community outreach and fund drive. Our goal is to raise $200,000. The goal is big, but is nothing compared to the size of our God. This money will be used:

1)      To meet the immediate needs of the school ($50,000)

2)      To pay down existing debt ($50,000)

3)      To establish a scholarship program so that as many kids as possible have the opportunity to receive the blessing from this education. ($50,000)

4)      To cover increased operating costs from expanding to include grades 9-12 ($50,000)

We need your help! Somerset Christian School was founded in 1983 and, unfortunately, remains one of Somerset County’s best kept secrets. It is time for this to change! The school is a non-denominational ministry that includes children from 24 different area churches. We provide classroom instruction to children from Pre-K through 12th grade. Our kiddos have the ability to learn and grow outside of congregational division. It is a safe and welcoming environment where kids are excited to go to school.

Please help spread the word! Our goal is to increase enrollment by 50 percent over the next two years. We can’t do this without your help. In addition, your financial support of any amount will provide an immediate and direct impact to helping us be a “voice in the wilderness”. All donations are tax deductible.

 



Many of you have asked, what makes this school so special? I think it’s time you hear from some of our biggest supporters…

   
  1st grade student: I love my school because the teachers are nice and the principal is very nice too. Everyone goes to a school but this school is very special because you can learn about God.
Kindergarten student: I love my school because I learn about the Bible.
2nd Grade student: I like Bible, Spelling, Math and specials. I have a teacher that loves me.
7th grade student: I love my school because… I go to a Christian school so I can pray without being judged by others and I can talk to my Christian friends about religion.


10th grade student: I love my school because I have the freedom to love God and worship Him every day. Not only do I receive a wonderful education, but I am able to learn more about God and grow stronger in Him. I am surrounded by godly influences. The teachers are kind, loving, and are always there to help you and pray with you. Every day, I am able to be around my friends who are Christians as well. We support each other and help each other grow closer in Christ.
